Bountiful Harvest

Here's our Spring garden update:

We have been busy trying to keep up with that garden we planted during the Spring. Our tomato plants are extremely productive. We can hardly eat them quick enough! We've shared with neighbors and Yia Yia. They are sweet and full of flavor. Steven's favorite thing to do is pick the cherry tomato's right off the vine and pop them into his mouth. Amanda Lily has even decided that she now likes raw onion. This was the first time we've ever planted onion, but they grew. Yum. The cucumbers didn't do so well. We got two, but neither of them ripened.

It's getting hot out now, so I'm not sure how long our garden will last. For now we are enjoying reaping what we sowed.(;

Why Do I Blog?

I use this blog as my online memory bank. If my words seem self serving, they are. I already find myself looking back on older posts and thinking...oh yea, I forgot that happened. It is also useful for our family members who live abroad to keep up with the kids growing. And, it comes in handy for organizing our favorite recipes. I like the idea that these recipes will all be compiled in one place for ease of access, and for my kids in the future. This blog has become my virtual recipe book.

About Me

I am married to the love of my life, George. I was so fortunate to meet him at a young age. He and our children Steven and Amanda Lily are my heart. We are blessed with a thriving business, and wonderful patrons who visit often. We have a wonderful family on both sides. There is the loving, loud, and fun Greek side. Then there is my side, the loving, not so loud, Southern family.
I take pride in being very involved in my children's school and education.
I also enjoy singing in the ensemble at church, shopping with friends, crafting with my Mom, and date night with my husband.I am a domestic girl. I LOVE cooking and decorating my home. Also, parties and entertaining. I live a charmed life, and thank God daily for the many blessings he has given my family.
